After hearing what the man in black robe said, Mu Xiao showed a hint of hesitation on his face and seemed very conflicted.
But after a moment, his brows slowly relaxed and he had made up his mind.
"Can you really help me integrate the demon bloodline?" Mu Xiao raised his head and asked in a serious tone.
"Of course, if I can do it, I can naturally help you do it." The man in black robe said confidently.
While speaking, he deliberately condensed a ball of solid demonic energy in his palm and showed it to Mu Xiao. The demonic energy was so thick that it was almost tangible.
"Forget it. Even if I can survive this disaster today, I will still be trapped here and imprisoned forever. Instead of that, I might as well give it a try." Mu Xiao sighed lightly and said as if he had made some decision.
"Okay, with the help of Fellow Daoist Mu Xiao, success is more likely to come." The man in black robe patted Mu Xiao's shoulder and said with a smile.
"Don't be happy too soon. If I find out that you've lied to me, I'll take you with me even if my soul is shattered." Mu Xiao narrowed his eyes and said with a warning.
"Haha, a wise bird chooses the right tree to roost in. Don't worry, Brother Muxiao. I'm so happy to have your help, how could I harm you? I will definitely reward you handsomely." The man in black robe patted his chest loudly and laughed.
"I hope you can keep your word." Mu Xiao said calmly.
"Well, now that we have formed an alliance, we can avoid a fight. Tell me, what is the current situation in the spirit cave?" asked the man in black robe in a low voice.
"Spirit Cave? The Spirit Cave is now occupied by a giant Yanjia that is as big as a city. Any transformed monsters that dare to approach will be attacked by the Yanjia. Those who are slow or blindly confident have basically been caught. Only a few who are lucky enough can escape alive." Mu Xiao said.
"Then... where is Zizhu?" the black-robed man asked again, his eyes flickering.
"Hmph, his luck isn't that good. His body has now fallen into the hands of that giant Yanjia, and only his soul managed to escape." Mu Xiao said with a sneer.
The man in black robe fell silent upon hearing this. He didn't say anything more. He just let Mu Xiao lead the way and walked with him.
…
At the same time, in another area.
In the ruins of broken walls, a yellow light appeared on the ground, and two figures emerged from the ground, one pulling the other.
They were none other than Shen Luo and Yan Wu Shi, who had escaped through earth burrowing and came here.
"Brother Shen, you almost killed me just now." Master Yan Wu let out a sigh.
"Brother Yan, you are too polite. We got out safely." Shen Luo smiled and said.
After saying that, he took out the black jade plate and gently stroked it with his palm. A white light spot immediately appeared on the jade plate, which represented the young master.
Soon after, another slightly smaller and dimmer light spot lit up.
Yan Wu Shi was originally somewhat dissatisfied, but when he saw a light spot suddenly appear on the black jade plate, he immediately became interested and came over.
"What is this? Why is there one more?" he couldn't help but ask.
"This mark was left on the black and yellow ruler when it was taken away. Now, as long as the man in black carries the ruler with him, we can keep track of his position and movements at any time." Shen Luo replied.
